Party with a Purpose Supports StarGala 2015

Lone Star College Dental Hygiene professor and StarGala Committee member Diane Wilson, along with her husband, LSC Foundation Board member Danny Wilson, and co-host Robin Stout, hosted one of the popular Party with a Purpose events at Wilson’s home in Kingwood on the evening of March 19, 2015. The purpose of these parties is for the host to gather their own friends, family and colleagues for an evening of discovery and support of Lone Star College, as well as to collect auction items for the upcoming StarGala donated by each guest. The theme for the Wilson’s party was gourmet cooking, and many exciting kitchen gadgets were collected to be included in the silent auction, including fashionable aprons, serving dishes, knife sets, wine, a food processor, pizza stones, baking supplies, and more. “Mad Men” is the theme for this year’s event, and the theme will truly be a celebration of being “mad about scholarships,” as all net proceeds will support the Foundation’s efforts of awarding scholarships to high-achieving and deserving Lone Star College students. For more information on the StarGala, contact Judy Lux, Director of Special Events, at judy.lux@lonestar.edu.
